[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, move to parts of the county where they're too busy dealing with students who are gang members and getting pregnant to worry about things like a racial epithet scrawled on a chalkboard...[/quote]

I’m an MCPS teacher and no, I do not think this is happening in other non-W schools and being swept under the rug. And comments like the one quoted above are what’s wrong here. Pray tell, PP, where do you live and where do your children attend school? How many kids do you personally know who attend these oh so terrible schools? How many teachers do you personally know at these schools? [/quote]

Or we could just look at crime statistics:

Pick a week.. any week. More violent crimes like strong arm robberies happened in every district except 2D (Bethesda).

Here's a list of every weekly crime report, so you can see it's not just last week:

Also based on the race of the suspects, we need more diversity in our criminals....[/quote]
What does this prove?????[/quote]

It proves that the PP doesn't understand the difference between school data and crime data.[/quote]

Show me school incident data -- would love to see that if MCPS reports it.

I'd wager that there are more incidents of a serious nature in schools that are in areas with a higher crime rate, compared to schools in an area with a lower crime rate. Is there reason to believe otherwise? I guess if we have MCPS incident data we could check to be certain.[/quote]
